*Note: This needs updating for Ocean V3.*

|
|
To enable Provider to use files stored in Amazon S3 (i.e. files with an URL containing `s3://`), you must:
|
|
|
|
1. have an Amazon AWS user account (IAM account) with permission to read those files from S3, and
|
|
1. set the AWS credentials on the machine where Provider is running to those of the AWS user in question. Instructions are given below.
|
|
1. Note that you don't have to set any Provider-specific configuration settings, e.g. in the `[osmosis]` section of the Provider config file or in some special Provider environment variables.
|
|
|
|
Under the hood, Provider uses [boto3](https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-python/) (the Python library for interacting with AWS) to interact with AWS and boto3 has a whole process for determining AWS credentials. The easiest way to set the AWS credentials on the machine where Provider is running is to install the [AWS CLI](https://aws.amazon.com/cli/) and then use the `aws configure` command.

For more details, see [the boto3 user guide about credentials](https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/configuration.html).
